Spring bed of lumbar support

ABSTRACT

A spring bed is provided for supporting the lumbar (lower back) curve, which provides a continuous contact on the lumbar region by preventing the lumbar curvature (hollowed space) which occurs due to the cavitation caused by the pressure on the user&#39;s buttock part on the bed. The spring bed has lower springs arranged side by side so as to take the shape of the lumbar curve on the spring bed and upper springs arranged side by side which take place on the lower springs.

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to a spring bed supporting lumbar (lower back)curve, which provides a continuous contact on the lumbar region bypreventing the lumbar curvature (hollowed space) which occurs due to thecavitation caused by the pressure on the user's buttock part on the bed.

STATE OF THE ART

Sleep, an imperative for the people to live in terms of mental andphysical health, involves about one third of the people's life onaverage. It is not possible to live without sleep, as it is accepted asthe recovery process of the body.

For this reason, sleep should be provided at the necessary level everynight for certain periods. A sleep lack of complete resting causesinconveniences such as fatigue, lack of concentration, stress, loss oflabor. It is indispensable in today's technology to use beds in whichthe desired comfort is provided for the physical and mental rest of thehuman body.

Therefore, since it is wished to provide the desired ergonomy and tooffer a peaceful, comfortable and restful sleeping for the users,various types of spring groups are being developed. The spring systemsproduced in the state of the art are single row spring systems which arenot very effective in filling the lumbar region curve. In the single-rowspring systems, the depression created by the pressure on the bed at thehip part creates a gap between the bed and the lumbar region. Therefore,the gap formed in the lumbar region damages the spine, the health isthus threatened due to the lumbar pain, and the quality of the life isnegatively affected by uncomfortable bed.

The patent document TR-2006/00468 having the title of “a spring bed thepart contacting on the user's spinal zone of which is reinforced” can beindicated in the known state of the art as an example of systemsdeveloped to avoid the said problems. In the abstract of the said patentdocument, it is stated that “the present invention relates to the springbeds providing ergonomy, comfort and high sleep quality by reducing theeffect on the spinal zone by distributing the point reaction force ofthe load on the springs in the part corresponding to the spinal zone inthe spring beds made of various springs.”

In the above mentioned invention, a rectangular wire frame is placed inthe spinal zone of the spring beds made from any spring carcass, and abalanced distribution of the load on the bed is provided to increase thesleep quality.

As a result, the existence of the above problems and the inadequacy ofexisting solutions made it necessary to develop a technical improvementfor the prevention of lumbar curvature in the beds.

OBJECTIVE OF THE INVENTION

Moving forward from the state of the art, the main objective of theinvention is to obtain a new spring bed, in which the disadvantages ofthe state of the art are eliminated.

Another main objective of the invention is that the springscorresponding to the lumbar curve in the spring bed are in two rows andat different heights.

Another main objective of the invention is to provide a continuouscontact on the lumbar region in the part of the spring bed that takesthe shape of the lumbar curve even there is little pressure on thesprings.

Another main objective of the invention is that the spring bed allowsthe whole body to touch the bed at the pressure ratio in addition tofilling the lumbar curve.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The spring bed (A) supporting lumbar curve, which provides a continuouscontact on the lumbar region by preventing the lumbar curvature whichoccurs due to the cavitation caused by the pressure on the user'sbuttock part on the bed, which comprises:

-   -   a standard spring (1) with a height used in standard beds,    -   lower springs (2) which are preferably of 140 mm height and        arranged side by side so as to take the shape of the lumbar        curve as much as the space forming the lumbar curve (D) on the        spring bearing (A),    -   upper springs (3) arranged side by side which take place on the        lower springs (2) forming the lumbar curve (D) on the spring bed        (A), equate the height of the lower springs (2) to the height of        the standard spring (1), which is the standard production heigh        of the spring bed (A), and have preferably a height of 125 mm.

As seen in FIG. 1, in respect of the spring array of the spring bed (A),the standard springs of the same height as the height used in thestandard beds are used in the sections corresponding to the parts ofpillow (B), shoulder (C), upper hip (E), lower hip (F), leg and foot(G).

In the section corresponding to the lumbar curve (D) part, the lowersprings (2), preferably at a height of 140 mm, are arranged side by sideso as to take the shape of the lumbar curve as much as the distanceforming the lumbar curve. Upper springs (3), which equate the height ofthe lower springs (2) to the standard production height of the bed,namely the height of the standard spring (1), and preferably of a heightof 125 mm, are placed on the lower springs (2).

The lower springs (2) and the upper springs (3) are fixed together bybeing sticked to each other.

The lower springs (2) and the upper springs (3) have different featurescompared to the standard springs (1).

When one lies on the spring bed (A), the lower springs (2) and the uppersprings (3) corresponding to the lumbar curve (D) fill the lumbar curveand consequently the contact on the lumbar region is never interruptedin the section of the lumbar curve (D), which takes the shape of thelumbar curve, even in the cases of little pressures on the lower springs(2) and upper springs (3), and thus a continuous touch is provided onthe lumbar region.

In this way, a gap between one's lumbar region and the spring bed (A) isremoved and it is thereby provided a feeling of less discomfort duringthe sleep and an uninterrupted sleeping pleasure by allowing that theevery part of the body touches on the bed in pressure ratio.

1. A spring bed lumbar curve, which provides a continuous contact on thelumbar region by preventing the lumbar curvature which occurs due to thecavitation caused by the pressure on the user's buttock part on the bed,characterized in that it comprises: a standard spring with a height usedin standard beds; lower springs arranged side by side so as to take theshape of the lumbar curve as much as the space forming the lumbar curveon the spring bed; upper springs arranged side by side which take placeon the lower springs forming the lumbar curve on the spring bed, equatethe height of the lower springs to the height of the standard spring,which is the standard production height of the spring bed.
 2. The springbed according to claim 1, characterized in that it comprises lowersprings located in the part corresponding to the lumbar curve and uppersprings sticked on the lower springs.
 3. The spring bed according toclaim 1, characterized in that it comprises standard springs located inthe parts corresponding to the pillow, shoulder, upper hip, lower hip,leg and foot.
 4. The spring bed according to claim 1, characterized inthat said lower spring is preferably at the height of 140 mm.
